Liebherr USA has invested in its Kansas City facility to serve as a spare parts warehouse for mobile and crawler cranes. This investment will help increase parts distribution in the area. The 12,000-square-foot warehouse holds approximately 2,300 spare part line items, with over 5,000 line items expected to be stocked once the facility is fully converted.
This project started with the installation of racking within the warehouse that began in early 2024, with the warehouse receiving and shipping out its first order only a month later. Kansas City will serve as one of four locations parts are distributed to once they arrive at the main warehouse in Newport News, V.A.
With many Liebherr machines being used to construct wind turbines for the prevalent wind industry in the Midwest, having parts more readily available will help reduce downtime and better service machines.
"When people choose to expand their fleet with Liebherr, they deserve a strong partner that can provide them with reliable and efficient service when they're in need," explains Anthony South, spare parts business manager of mobile and crawler cranes at Liebherr USA, Co.
This investment has been immediately felt by contractors, who can see the price and availability of parts in their area through their MyLiebherr portal.
